Norwich proved that it has a wealth of fashion talent at last night's Norwich Fashion Week Designers Show, says EMMA HARROWING.

There was a buzz of excitement in Norwich yesterday as The Designers Show highlighted some of the best fashion talent in Norfolk.

Organised by City College Norwich and hosted by BBC Radio Norfolk’s Becky Betts, the show brought together fashion and textile students with established and up and coming fashion designers from Norfolk. The show also saw the launch of Norwich fashion label Cocoon - a fashion collective run and designed by fashion and textile students at City College.

Fashion designers and makers from Norwich and Norfolk designed special collections for the show, which took place in Project nightclub on Riverside.
